Don't mind seeing a dead Pike, (No loss) but the Grebe is very distressing and some of these "Fisher persons" have a lot to answer for. Always unpleasant to see Mutes fighting like that (Two Cobs). Nasty pieces of work really. Great new header shot as well.Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14669756911857727253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319263072086243509.post-42027768809858629472012-03-06T12:25:53.519+00:002012-03-06T12:25:53.519+00:00Oh my!

As I already knew it had a happy outcome I could watch it but if I had witnessed it in person I would have found it very distressing. They must have both been exhausted after all that! You certainly had an eventful visit. The GCG incident was horrible, I'll spare you my rant or this comment will be even longer than usual ;-) but I'm sure you know what I think of such mindless carelessness...<br /><br />Anyway you have some lovely photos here, the Reed Buntings are lovely and the BH Gull reminded me of one of those great shots you see of Puffins with their beaks crammed full of fish :-)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319263072086243509.post-19887741485665974932012-03-06T06:18:58.448+00:002012-03-06T06:18:58.448+00:00Thank you Bob.

Bloody careless fishermen; and they shouldn't even be fishing in that part of the lake.<br /><br />That video was amazing. They look very fierce when they fight like that. Only ever seen it once before, and it's quite distressing to watch.holdingmomentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455039696354576430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319263072086243509.post-86128533408240366762012-03-05T17:18:35.512+00:002012-03-05T17:18:35.512+00:00Thanks Abhinav...[;o)Thanks Abhinav...[;o)The Heraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11393815486440597141noreply@blogger.com
